Episode 39. people gathering
#
As Ion headed to the Crystal Palace, he was immersed in thought.
‘What kind of nobles would it be better to recruit?’
Kaistein was divided into five major powers.
The most famous among them.
Northern Lavaltor
Garcia of the West
Kaistein in the center
It was the power of the two duchess, the nobility of the nobility, and the royal family.
Among them, Duke Lavaltor had a powerful army to deal with the barbarians in the north, and Garcia had accumulated enormous wealth through the Golden Road in the west.
The equivalent of the royal power had a considerable number of standing troops and the Royal Knights Templar, all of whom were senior knights. Moreover, even the magic tools that have been passed down from ancient times.
It could be said that it was a three-way battle of three powers.
Of course, besides them, there were also check-ins that should not be ignored.
‘There is a union of nobles in the South.’
They had gathered so much power that it was difficult for even two dukes to take it lightly.

Moreover, even the Marquis of Adelas in the East is hiding his power.
In particular, Adelas in the East had a close relationship with Ian’s knight, Nathan.
‘Nathan is the second son there.’
He was told that he was a promising family member, to the extent that he once had a right of succession. Now, I don’t know why, but the Duke of Garcia’s knightwent, though.
And the problem started here.
‘It is easy to hold the Duke of Garcia’s hand. Because that’s what I’m hoping for too.’
But he had to live in danger of not knowing when he might be betrayed. At least for Ian, who knows the future, it’s an option he doesn’t want to take as much as possible.
That’s why he was interested in Duke Lavaltor.
‘The Duke of Lavaltor knows no lies and has a fair personality. Then he wouldn’t be hit in the head.’
Even if he had not entwined with the two princes by marriage in the womb, he was a family that would not support that stupid older brother. What if there was a letter from Lee Eon and the situation where his arm was cut off like now?
‘He may no longer support his 2nd prince brother.’
Besides, if he could turn that support to himself, it would be great. Not only that, but if he can even get support from other nobles, he has a lot of cards he can handle.
‘By the way, when did the Southern Nobles Union move? It must have been moved because of something.’
It was certain that it was such a big deal that the whole kingdom was noisy.
‘Obviously, the 3rd Prince hyung took part in the incident at that time, so the aristocratic union came to support him.’
Thinking about it, Ion narrowed his brow.
There is still time until that event arrives, so it was necessary to investigate the related matter. Until then, he uses what his patron, Garcia, uses.
Of course, it would have been better if Karan, who was being instructed by the Duke, was also made into his own person.
And it was then.
“Im here. It is the Crystal Palace.”
Ion, who had followed the servant, opened his mouth without realizing it.
Because in front of him stood a beautiful castle high.
‘Crystal Palace.’
It was a quiet place in the deepest part of the royal palace. Although it has the disadvantage of being small, the glass and crystal building is just as beautiful as the name suggests.
Ian smiled contentedly.
‘I didn’t know this would be my palace.’
Because this place was so precious that even the first prince, who was the crown prince, did not receive it.
Because of that, it was time for Ion to go up with a smile.
“Who dared give up that place!”
“!”
Ian turned his head at the familiar voice.
First floor. A familiar face appeared from not far away.
The opponent is the 2nd Princess.
Are you in your late teens? On a face full of sociability, there was a beautiful beauty and elegant dignity, like a royal bloodline.
But she had come early in the morning to hear the news that Ian’s palace had been decided.
“Didn’t I take charge of the layout of the 7th Prince’s palace? He must have ordered them to be placed in the Opal Palace.”
At those words, Ian narrowed his brow.
Of course, the Opal Palace wasn’t too bad either. It was a place where banquets were held for envoys from other countries.
However, it is a place that has a significantly different meaning and status from the place where King Elaine stayed as a prince in the past. For his heirs, this castle was meant to overthrow the other brothers and take the place of kings.
It was natural for the 2nd princess to be angry with the chief of staff.
just as expected.
“The arrangement of the palace is my authority. But you dare not ask me if someone disregarded my orders and sent the 7th Prince here.”
“That… that…”
The chieftain was sweating profusely and couldn’t even answer.
And it was then.
The 2 princesses who found her Ion approached with a warm smile. A smile that no one can see without a flaw.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen just the two of you. The look of the proof is very nice. ”
Instead of answering, Ian answered with a smile.
“It is an honor to be able to call a beautiful person like you my sister.”
Unlike Princess 1, who felt cold, Princess 2 smiled softly and she said to Ian.
“I made the servants walk in vain by mistake,I’m sorry. We’ll send someone out soon, so it’d be good to go back to the original location.”
“Wow… Princess?”
The servants were perplexed.
But the 2nd Princess didn’t care.
“As the head of the palace, I order again. Correct the mistake and move the 7th Prince to his place right now.”
The eyes of the 2 princesses looking at her servant were cold, unlike when she looked at her. However, when her frightened servants did not move and looked only at her, the eyebrows of her 2nd princess rose slightly.
“What are you doing now?”
“I, that is…”
And it was then.
“By what right does your sister say such a thing?”
As her Ion pushed her attendants back, the 2 princesses smiled softly as they matched her stature. As if to appease her Ian, she spoke as if to teach a little child what was right and what was wrong.
“The general manager of the palace is Mama Wang. I am the person in charge of helping the Queen Mother and managing the palace. Are you planning to go against the orders of the Queen Mother now?”
Instead of answering her, Ian just stared at her 2nd princess. The two princesses smiled at those eyes.
“I thought it was a mistake, so I tried to just skip it this time, but I can’t. I will have to find out the culprit and punish them severely.”
That was the moment.
“Then, the queen must be punished severely.”
“!”
Everyone turned their heads in surprise at her unexpected voice.
Then, the 3rd Prince Louis, who suddenly approached, was smiling behind her 2nd Princess.
And the second princess was embarrassed by his words.
“Brother. What was that just…”
“Literally. It means that Queen Mama gave this place to me.”
The 2nd princess now said what nonsense, she looked at the 3rd prince.
“What are you talking about! Maybe now, Queen Mama is telling the 7th Prince… to that place?”
“okay. What. The final approval was given by the queen, but the queen did the assignment in any case.”
“It cannot be. The Queen is sure!”
“Being angry with me doesn’t change anything. In that case, how about going to them now?”
2 The princess secretly bit her lip.
She thought she was on their side because of the queen’s betrayal. She agrees to give up this place and nowhere else.
‘The second prince, who is the child he gave birth to himself. Have you already forgotten that it was the youngest who cut off your brother’s arm?’
hey, that was unbelievable.
So the 2nd princess turned her body.
“Wow, Princess! Where are you going!”
“Go back.”
The chaplain followed the two princesses who were very angry. But her direction was not the Jang Labyrinth, the main palace of her 2nd princesses. Rather, the Lily Palace. It was the direction the 1st princess was.
At the sight, the three princes shrugged her shoulders.
‘Well, I didn’t know the Queen would give her youngest guy this far.’
To be honest, it was surprising, but the 3rd prince soon approached Ion and slyly stroked her hair.
“The youngest. I can help you, but don’t look down on the line of nobles. They are after you.”
Ian was immediately vigilant. That’s right, the 3rd Prince is a huge enemy who tried to kill himself in the past.
However, unlike in the past, the 3rd Prince whispered secretly.
“Bring in Lavaltor. I don’t think the nobles will just let the second prince’s case go. Well, or Garcia is fine.”
The 3rd Prince did not wait for Ion’s answer and turned around.
Ian didn’t even have time to say anything.
The three princes turned around and her eyes gleamed as if they had ever smiled skillfully.
‘The man’s letter came to the Duke of Lavaltor…’
The third prince remembered the incident of the knight of the 1st Knights who came to him yesterday.
Although the 1st Knights belonged to Lavaltor, they were personally close knights.
[therefore. What are the trends of other nobles?]
[Yes. You are what the prince thought. thatIt seems that the 2nd Prince of Rigo has sent a letter to the general manager, not to the Duke of Lavaltor. He seemed to be asking for help. This is it.]
The 3rd Prince was scorched, but he smiled lightly as he read the letter he received.
[Ho, by the way, who ripped it so gorgeously?]
[That’s… the director tore it himself.]
Recalling that, the 3rd Prince smiled.
He still liked Ian. It was also true that he was in the same situation, but he was also different from the other dark-hearted brothers.
So he won’t let him die in the least sequel.
‘Even if I tore up my brother’s letter, there’s no way Lavaltor would move for the 7th Prince.’
He was on Garcia’s side.
That was after he left.
snuggle
Han In-young appeared from the shadow of the tree where the third prince disappeared.
Inyeong, a small stature, wore the same outfit as the one who tried to assassinate Ion in the annex.
And Inyoung’s woman did not delay and took out her crystal ball.
“I will report. The 7th Prince was assigned the Crystal Palace. Also, remarks like the 3rd Prince supporting him…”
[What? Lewis?]
The voice coming from the crystal ball was none other than the voice of the second prince.
And did the story of the Crystal Palace become ridiculous? At the very least, the words that the 3rd Prince, who was the most thorny in the succession war, looked good to Ion seemed to be getting more excited.
The day dawned on his voice, which soon became anxious.
[What happened to Lavaltor? Why doesn’t he reply to my correspondence?]
“According to the report of No. 2, the Duke directly moved the 1st Knights. It’s obviously for the sake of lowering the 2nd Prince. Are you a craftsman?”
Then the second prince’s voice softened a little.
[okay. There’s no way the Duke of Lavaltor would abandon me. He seems to be trying to deal with him himself.]
“Then shall I continue to follow in the footsteps of the 3rd Prince?”
[no. Watch out for that damn youngest from now on. As long as he has been officially announced as the 7th Prince, distinguished guests and envoys from other countries will come to the foundation of the country next month. We have to deal with him before that. Well, I think Lavaltor will gather the nobles and deal with him before that.]
“I will take your name.”
So it was time for the assassin to disappear back into the shadows.
“Wow!”
Someone snatched the assassin from behind at once. It was acting like a ghost.
And that’s a strong and honest man’s hand.
At last he dragged the assassin towards the master, and the master smiled.
“Well, I knew this.”
Ion beckoned to Galon, who had captured the assassin.

‘Was this incense candle here?’
Ian frowned.
It was as if he knew he was coming, or maybe the incense candle in question was mixed in the training ground.
‘What. It doesn’t seem to have any effect on me, so it doesn’t matter.’
Just in case, I called the therapist of the Duke Garcia to check it, but he said it was a problem because he was too healthy.
In fact, I felt like I was getting better.
However.
‘If it wasn’t done with good intentions.’
If that’s poison And if I had been in the same place in the past. Was it possible that the past self was addicted?
But now I’m not too worried.
I had no choice but to do so.
Oooh!
They were demonstrating their power as if they were protecting Ian.
Still, it was bad to feel bad.
after.
Ion turned off the candle and quietly took the evidence. If Karan is investigating, he is planning to use it in reverse.
But now it was something else.
“Are you here?”
Galon handed the wooden sword towards him.
“Would you be okay with me instead of Nathan?”
“yes. rank-and-fileIf you die in , there is no answer. They’ll try to kill me somehow before I’m an adult. You have to be careful about stealth.”
That wasn’t the only thing.
The upcoming Founding International will be a place to test the abilities of his successors, and surely someone will announce a rank-and-file battle before that.
‘I don’t know if the rumored 5th and 6th princes will come.’
I’ve never seen it in my previous life, but I don’t know this time. It was because the future was changing.
It was when Ion arrived at the training ground while talking to Galon.
“Well? Who are you?”
Some knights were standing in the training ground. They are all royal guards.
The knights bowed their heads toward Ion.
“The 1st princess sent it. He asked me to help with training for competition and rank-and-file combat.”
Ian smirked.
Is she the 1st princess?
“I’m here to help you with my training, Sir Gallon, so you can go back.”
an obvious congratulations.
But they didn’t say a word and instead approached Ian.
“I’m sorry, but it will be more beneficial to me to receive the sincerity of the 1st princess, rather than Lord Gallon, who is full of the falsehood of being the 3rd knight.”
“We have prepared something special for you.”
“····.”
But Ian snorted.
“My training teacher is chosen by me. Stop going back.”
“It cannot be. 1This is what the Queen Mother directly ordered. I’m sure the prince will be more helpful to those who have a lot of practical experience.”
It was the moment Ian was about to question.
“Then you have to go back?”
“!”
Another article arrived. This time, they were all dressed in blue uniforms.
And they are the 1st Knights. One of Kaistein’s best powers to protect the kingdom.
“Sent by Duke Lavaltor. He told me to help the prince train.”
what? Lavaltor?
the end
